Judy and Nick are driving back to the police station, feeling completely full from their lunch. Judy was especially cheerful in hopes that she and Nick are getting another case to solve.
"I wonder what the situation is that Chief Bogo has for us this time?" Judy asked Nick.
"I don't know, but I'm eager to find out."
Once they arrive at the station, they head to the bullpen of the ZPD headquarters. Chief Bogo was there when they got there.
"So, Hopps and Wilde, how was your day out this morning?" he asked.
"It was fine." Judy answered. "There's barely been any trouble except that we pulled over a panther who was speeding. Then while we were eating at Bob's Burgers, this coyote mother's daughter misbehaved because she didn't get what she wanted and tried her mother to kiss her butt."
Bogo started snorting with laughter and Judy and Nick nervously laughed along. "A coyote wanted her mother to kiss her butt!" Soon, their laughter finally died down.
"What was it she wanted that she didn't get?" Bogo asked.
"Vanilla ice cream." Nick answered
"Oh dear. Now take your seats. The meeting is about to start."
Soon, all the officers of the ZPD were in their seats and paying attention to Bogo. "Now, there's been a new mammal gone missing. An hour ago, a squirrel came into my office saying that her daughter is missing."
Earlier
Chief Bogo was in his private quarters entertaining himself with a Gazelle app when a female squirrel entered.
"Hello ma'am." Bogo greeted the squirrel. "Can I help you with something?"
The squirrel is on the brink of tears and tried to maintain her voice. "Hi. I'm Kathy Nutts. I need help finding my daughter, Betty."
"How long has she been missing?" Bogo asked Kathy.
"She's been missing since sunrise." Kathy answered on the verge of crying. "I've looked all over the city and I couldn't find her."
"When was the last time you saw her?"
"I saw her last night when I was putting her to bed. When I got up this morning, she was gone."
"And what was she wearing when you put her to bed?"
"She was wearing a short-sleeved pink dress."
"You got a poster of her?"
She hands him a "missing" poster of her daughter. It read that Betty Nutts was last seen last night at 10:00 PM wearing a pink short-sleeved dress, and if found, contact Kathy Nutts.
Bogo looked at the poster and looked sympathetically at Kathy who by now is bursting into tears.
"Oh, my poor little Betty! Have someone find her, chief! Please! My poor daughter!" she sobbed.
"Not to worry, Mrs. Nutts." Bogo said trying to console Kathy. "I will send my two best officers to find her. I promise."
"Oh, please! Please! I can't live without her!"
Present
"So now it's come down for her to be found and soon." Bogo said.
"This should be another adventurous case like the one involving Mr. Otterton," Judy whispered to Nick.
"Yeah," Nick whispered back.
"Assignments," Bogo announced. "Hopps, Wilde, find Betty Nutts. Take all the time you need." He hands a picture of Betty to the two.
"Thank you, sir." Judy said and she and Nick walked out of the bullpen to begin their assignment.
